Directed by: Tom Hooper
Starring: Ian McKellen, Judi Dench, Idris Elba, Rebel Wilson

Question: Much is said about the infamous first released version with Judy Dench's real hand instead of a CGI paw, but I'm watching that same version now and ALL of the cats have real human hands.

Answer: The issue wasn't about her hand looking human but, as you mentioned, that she was wearing her own ring, which was digitally removed in the revised version.
